WASHING HANDS WITH SOAP Hand washing with soap is the easiest and most effective way to prevent

worms from entering the body. Washing w/soap before preparing or eating a meal, and after using the latrine, can prevent contamination. It is important to scrub hands for 20 seconds, paying special attention to removing dirt between ngers and from under the ngernails. Worms can linger in wet surfaces so it is important to rinse and dry hands fully after washing them.
